“It’s a fun concept and a new change for people who are bored of running their everyday routes. Users pick a sigil or family crest of their favorite GoT ruling house, then the sigil is plotted on Google Maps and the directions for the route is e-mailed to users.”

—

Android users of the FigureRunning app can already use the Sketch functionality to plot the GoT sigil on a map, before they start running (open the FigureRunning app, push sketch, load sketch into run and start running!) and there will be a new version of the iOS app too with this function, soon! Tag your sigil drawing with #runofthrones, share it with FigureRunning and it will be added to the Run of Thrones wall at the FigureRunning Online Gallery.
